The Mind, an Unexpected Development
Liu Yi produced a large mass of pitch-black negative energy.
In the past few years, while researching Cultivation Method for purifying the Power of Faith, he carefully collected the negative energy released from burning the Power of Faith.
These negative energies are extremely pure; if an ordinary person were to absorb even a small amount, they would likely immediately become mentally unstable and go completely insane.
The great gift he prepared for the God of Light was precisely this negative energy.
A light flashed in his hand, and the dark negative energy flowed and changed within the halo, gradually transforming into a milky white color identical to the Power of Faith.
A glint flashed in his eyes as he unleashed his Power of the Mind, imbuing the negative energy cluster with it.
This is to further distort perception, making it appear more like the Power of Faith.
Moreover, his experiments showed that doing so could also counteract some of the burning and purifying effects of the purification Cultivation Method.
It's just unknown how strong the effect of counteracting the purification Cultivation Method in the hands of the God of Light will be.
However, according to his calculations, even if it cannot completely offset the purification, it should be able to offset most of it.
The Power of the Mind belongs to the Dao of Idealism, and is extremely mysterious. It can distort other people's perceptions at their very source.
In recent years, he has delved deeply into the study of Power of the Mind, Power of the Mind, in theory, possesses infinite possibilities.
As long as one's willpower is strong enough to withstand the power, one can turn the impossible into the possible, truly making everything possible.
"God of Light, you don't need to thank me!"
A wicked smile crept across Liu Yi's face as he casually tossed the ball of negative energy toward the God of Light.
The energy cluster silently merged into the Power of Faith on the statue, instantly becoming one with it, indistinguishable from one another.
Then, following the Power of Faith, they disappeared onto the statue through the faith passage.
The martial arts training ground of the Chen State, a family of cultivators in the Aristocratic Clan of Chen Household.
Today is the day for the younger generation of the Chen Household to compete in martial arts. The winner will become the Holy Son and represent the Chen Household throughout the world.
Chen Jie stared at the martial arts arena, his eyes burning with fervor and his face radiating confidence.
After years of arduous training, his cultivation level in the Artifact Cultivation System has now reached the Early Artifact Body Realm Stage, which is equivalent to the Early Golden Core Realm in the Immortal Cultivation System.
He originally planned to continue his seclusion, but further cultivation would require a massive amount of resources.
As a member of a collateral branch of the Lineage, he was of mediocre talent and the resources he could be allocated were limited, so he had to leave seclusion early to seek other fortuitous opportunity.
He was thrilled to find himself in the Lineage's election for the Holy Son right after emerging from seclusion.
As long as you win first place, you will receive special training from the Lineage, and Cultivation Resources will naturally not be a problem.
Although his current cultivation level is only equivalent to the Early Golden Core Stage, he is still a powerful figure who survived the Heavenly Tribulation in his previous life.
Whether in terms of combat experience or comprehension of the Great Dao Principle, he is far superior to his peers.
He was absolutely confident that he could secure the position of the Chen Household's Holy Son.
"Sigh, this Lineage competition is just a formality. We have no chance at all. Chen Fan will definitely be the number one among the younger generation."
"That's right! Chen Fan has Fire Spirit Root, he's already at the Golden Core Realm Peak Stage, and he even ranked 823rd on the Trial Tower Golden Core Realm Combat Power Ranking."
He also comprehended the Fire Principle, raising his Seven-Pattern Golden Core to eight patterns.
I heard he could break through to the Nascent Soul Realm at any time, but he wants to hone his skills for a while longer, aiming to upgrade his Eight-Pattern Golden Core to nine-patterned.
With the system's assistance, Chen Fan might actually be able to cultivate Nine-Pattern Golden Core.
Sigh, we just don't have enough Energy Points, otherwise we could have bought an Artificial Heavenly Spirit Root like Chen Lin.
Look, Chen Lin is already ranked 1093rd on the Trial Tower Golden Core Realm Combat Power Ranking. Give him some more time, and maybe he can really compete with Chen Fan."
"We're so poor! We're really too poor! After the Lineage competition ends, we'll go somewhere else to Dissemination System and earn Energy Points."
As long as I accumulate enough Energy Points, I might have a chance to surpass Chen Fan in the future!
"That's right! Now that we have the system, people like us with average talent finally have a chance to defy fate!"
Chen Jie listened to the conversation of the Chen Household family members beside him, his brows furrowed, his mind filled with doubt.
System, Trial Tower, Combat Power Ranking, Artificial Heavenly Spirit Root, Energy Points... these unfamiliar terms left him completely bewildered.
When he heard someone say that this Lineage martial arts competition was just a formality and that Chen Fan would definitely be the first place Chen Fan, he couldn't help but curl a disdainful smile at the corner of his mouth.
He admitted that Chen Fan's ability to comprehend the Fire Principle at the Golden Core Realm was indeed genius, and he was not much inferior to him in his previous life.
But things are different now. In this life, he has not only laid an incredibly solid foundation, but has also comprehended one of the most powerful Great Dao Principle: the Space Principle.
Although there is still a gap in their cultivation levels, he has rich combat experience.
With the added power of the Great Dao of Space, defeating a mere Chen Fan would be an easy task.
Just then, Chen Feng, the Lineage, stood up and announced loudly, "Today is a grand martial arts competition for the younger generation of our Chen Household..."
The victor will not only become a Holy Son, but will also receive the full support and cultivation of their Lineage! Now, the competition officially begins!
After he finished speaking, the scene fell silent.
None of the Chen Household family members were willing to go on stage first, but everyone seemed to have expected this, and their faces did not show any surprise.
Chen Jie glanced at the younger generation in the arena, none of whom dared to step onto the field, and a hint of contempt flashed in his eyes: a bunch of cowards, they don't even have the courage to step onto the field.
He instantly flashed and landed steadily on the arena. His gaze swept over the crowd, and he proclaimed loudly, "I am Chen Jie, and I wish to learn from your esteemed skills!"
Chen Jie's sudden appearance stunned everyone present; no one had expected that someone would actually dare to step onto the stage.
"Who is this Chen Jie? Never heard of him! Is he really that brave? Knowing he's bound to lose, he still goes up to get beaten up. Isn't he afraid of losing face?"
"He seems to be a member of a collateral branch? I've never heard of him being Golden Core Realm cultivator. How dare he go on stage?"
"He must have just emerged from seclusion not long ago, and hasn't been bound to the system yet. He probably has no idea that the outside world has undergone earth-shattering changes."
"This is going to be interesting! I wonder how many moves he can last against Chen Fan. Surely he won't be killed in one hit?"
Chen Lin flashed and landed steadily on the arena, his gaze fixed on Chen Jie before him:
"I was originally planning to challenge Chen Fan, but I didn't expect you to suddenly appear. I don't know where you got the courage, but this farce should end."
"You'd better get down here yourself, otherwise I'll have no choice but to knock you off the stage and then challenge Chen Fan."
Chen Jie curled his lip in disdain, his eyes revealing arrogance:
"Defeat me? You dare to challenge me? Today I'll show you what I'm capable of!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the sixth elder of the Chen Household in the spectator stands raised his hand to form a hand seal.
As the Law Seals took shape, a dazzling light flashed, and the arena was instantly enveloped in a layer of light.
The arena space also quietly expanded under the blessing of the formation, forming a space large enough to accommodate Golden Core Realm cultivators competing at full strength.
"The martial arts competition begins."
